**Official** 30k Prop Bet / Super Nova Elite in 5.5 Months - Page 12

Dude i play 8 hours a day basically everyday of my life. Grinding low stakes sit n gos are not easy :< Been doing it for like 2 years now. I would take a bet like this in a heart beat. Not saying its easy but its not as tough as everyone is thinking. Just takes some dedication.

[ ] will make SNE playing low stakes sit n goes

[ ] will make SNE playing 114's

[x] will make SNE playing 225's and above

[x] will never make SNE

[x] is a clown.

There you go.

I wouldn't wish what he is going to go through on anyone. He is in for a long haul, and my guess is it is going to be more difficult for him to do it than he thinks. It is one thing to run the math and realize he only needs x amount of VPP's per day to make it and have it all seem good and well. It is quite another, however, to actually pull it off. If he does it he should be very proud of himself and it will teach him some lessons that will serve him well througout his life. I wish him the best.

I posted in the Stoxpoker.com forum, here is Leatherass's reply.

I have 4 tables in each position. They are stacked behind the one you see. The table that demands my action pops up.

Before I decide to take any action or not, seeing as how action closes on Tuesday I want to know a couple quick things..

How old is BallCup? (guessing 22-25 by video cam)

What is your prior experience in poker or how long have you been around small stakes?

Are his FPPs that he earns still allowed to be included in the profit of the total bet? (Such as $1500, $4k, and concierge bonuses?) - This is obviously the biggest determining factor of most people who are considering taking action.

I may still be willing to take action on this bet.

My last 45k hands. It makes it near impossible to want to play when I lose this much. If this continues, the challenge wont even be worth it anymore. Thank god the action is closing soon. Jesus

this is sooo ridiculous

is there another reason besides $$ that you are doing this? it almost sounds like you don't expect to make very much money

you could surely make more playing your A+ game for 1/4 the time and moving up in limits

i wish you luck tho, this is crazy

why do you say that?
a living hell is when you get stacked literally 30 times in a row without stacking anybody. living hell is when youre playing 200nl and you run at -1500$/hour for 6 hours straight... not like -200$/hour

just looks like a couple really-bad-but-could-be-worse sessions in a row

Yeah, it seems to be

But it doesn't matter how much he wins/loses because it's about this:
"I am claiming I can make SuperNova Elite in 5.5 months, starting at July 20, 2009 with 40,000 VPPs. The betting odds are 3 to 1, putting me as the underdog. To do this I have to play approx 2 million hands in a little less than 5.5 months."

I can't imagine you making a bad video about anything... You could probably coach tennis for us too.

I'm interested in betting, quick question though:

Is shortdonking allowed or will you be playing with 100BB+ stack?

Just thought of a second question:

Is it all 6-max or will you be playing some FR?

Last edited by pobolero; 07-27-2009 at 03:52 PM. Reason: second question
